Description
A vintage double bust figurine depicting the legendary cinematic comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. The piece is cast in a heavy composite material, likely a cold-cast resin or ceramic bisque, featuring the pair in their signature attire including black bowler hats, suits, a bowtie for Laurel, and a traditional necktie for Hardy. The figures are interconnected at the shoulder and mounted upon an integral base expertly modelled and painted to resemble a weathered wooden log. The faces are hand-painted with a matte finish, capturing the distinctive expressions of the iconic performers. While no maker’s marks, serial numbers, or signatures are present, the style and construction are indicative of high-quality memorabilia produced for the giftware market in the late 20th century. Dimensions: Approximately 19 cm (H) x 18 cm (W) x 9 cm (D).
